Dear Community:
Hope you are enjoying this beautiful summer day! Sure wish we had this weather yesterday for the Worthington Annual Town Meeting! However, the heavy downpours didn’t deter community members from coming out and voting! I am happy to announce that the school budget passed unanimously! I would like to give a heartfelt thanks to all the community members who voted yesterday during the ATM! The district is grateful for the unwavering support and all the teachers are very excited to begin our school year!
Speaking of the 2020-2021 school year, I have some important information for you as we begin to plan for back-to-school. Please watch for further back-to-school emails later this week. Important information will be shared out slowly in order for you to have time to read all the information. Below are the first important reminders for the beginning of the year. As always, please don’t hesitate to reach out via email or give us a call at school 413-238-5856.

- Family In-Takes are this week! Please make sure to schedule a time with your classroom teacher to visit the school. And please remember to wear your mask.

Remote Learners:

Have a wonderful evening! We look forward to seeing you this week during in-takes!
